As well as having interesting birdlife, North Pond is a great location for observing dragonflies, such as Widow Skimmer...

I caught these two Variegateds in flagrante - judging by his facial expression, the male seems to be enjoying himself!
If you thought Garden Spiders were big in the UK, check out these monsters...
